Oh the confusion
From what I gather so far they are saying that the visible universe (light from galaxies) can only travel at light speed, but the dark/invisible space expanding these galaxies is much faster...kind of my layman's way of understanding it anyway.
BTW I don't think thats from Hubble, can't remember what took that snapshot but it was some kind of background radiation probe from nasa.
